Take a look at http://www.dunnington.info/public/IntelHEX
There's a description and also some code you could adapt.
Does anyone recognise this hex file format from anywhere?

#000CED52300119&4A

$
As far as I can tell, the first four hex digits is a 16 bit address,
followed by up to 48 hex digit pairs of data and the hex digit pair
after & is a checksum. The $ appears to be an end of file marker.
It came from a Z80 cross assembler which ran on VAX/VMS. Searching
for information about it has turned up very little except for a
reference on the DECUS website to:
V00250 UCAMS: Universal Cross-Assembler for Microprocessors
Version: February 1987
however, I don't think this is it.
Does anyone have a better description of the file format or
anything that might have produced it?

You
don't have a dump of the PROMs in Intel HEX?
No, but I do have a un-annotated dump in octal. Can you point me at a
description of Intel HEX format, so I can whip up a converter program? (Which
will also take an array of PDP-11 words, and split it up into the 4 different
ROM chips, since each word is spread across all 4 chips.) I already have a
program to read my octal dump things, so I'll just have to tweak that a bit.
